The hauptman wears a RK, ek1, ek2, ost,wb, drl and pab.
The "major" wears a RK, ek1 and what appears to be forind decorations under the breast pocket.

Hi

I think it is suppused to be in 1944, some thing concerning a Scharfschützenausbildung in Königsbrück and the names schould be Unger and Frank.

In my opinion the 2 Heer RKT on the photo are:

Hauptmann Erich Frank

Major Heinz Unger

Hope this helps.

Regards Richard.

Hi all,

I have seen other pictures of Frank so that's confirmed.

However, not that sure about Unger. Frank was from III/GrRgt 116/9 Inf Div and Unger was from SchtzRgt 10/9 Pz... why are they together? 9 Div was in South Ukraine and 9Pz was on the Western front in 1944.

I found a pic of a RKT from a 9 Pz Div album that matched Scherzer's pic of Unger. (Walter Scheller was in the album too so definitely 9 Pz) But neither of these agreed with the high cheek bones of "Unger" being shown.

Cheers
Elwyn
